If you have specific ideas about what parts of the updating process are

Just as an example that just came up recently: gettext was updated in
the ports tree, which required a rebuild of all ports that depend on
it. I missed reading /usr/ports/UPDATING before, so I didn't notice
this fact. I did an update on my girlfriends laptop which resulted in
several applications

Is there some sort of automated way to keep freebsd and all the
installed ports/packages up to date automatically?
I don't mean just the source, that part is easy. I mean something
that actually reinstalls the things ad needed, sort of like windows
update or the updater on ubuntu.
